INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
[Connnued from Fourth Page

short haul at non-competing rates. II
may be that neither alone won d main
tain the road. II l understand this
bill correctly, under it the long lines
of railroads passing through different
States will have to give up n or the
other. It will be practically q
regulation of freight within the
boundaries of a State and making
a barrier of the boundaries OF a
State to the free transmissio n of CON
MERGE. The general railroad manage
ment of the country ID careful to N
slider what the cheap manufactured
products of the country can afford to
pay, and make their rates with a view
that productions shall not be hindeIed.
The rates charged for manufactured
goods, almost without an exception,
do not affect the producer or the
consumer. II the rates OF freight
upon manufactured articles we're re-
duced one-half the probability is that
there Is nothing that moves by rail-
road over the longest line in the
country whose price to the consumer
would be affected, or would be taken
into consideration by the manufaci-
urer, but the fractional part OF
a cent becomes a very serious
consequence in the long haul, to
most OF the raw products OF
the country. The higher the maxi
NUNS the lower the possible mini
NUNS. Thus, in my own State, the
msximums are 10 cents per ton per
mile. With an average cost Of 2 cents
q mile for movement, which was
about the average at one time, one ton
OF freight moved at Is cents a ton per
mile would enable the raj road to
move fourteen tons at the minimum
rate OF one cent per mile. There was
at that time about l per cent. Of the
business done at the maximum rate,
while the other 80 per cent. was done
at rates governed by circumstances
and influences which the railroad
could not control.
After an executive session the Ben
ate adjourned.

THE MEMPHIS STAKES
FOR THE SPRING MEETING IN
APRIL NEXT
To Close on the 18th OF January
The Stakes TO be Run for-What
Col. Montgomery Says,

The New York Sportsman calls the
attention Of its readers TO the fact that
the Memphis stakes for the spring
meeting in April next will close on
the 18th Of January, and both in con.
ditions and added money are we'll
worth the attention OF all owners and
trainers who intend taking psrt in the
Southwestern circuit. The meeting at
Memphis will begin On April 10Th,
and last six days, and Dol. H..
A. Montgomery, the president Of
the Jockey Club, in O personal
interview last week, expressed him
self to us freely on the future pros
poets OF the Bluff City. Memphis,
from a population Of about $4,000 in
1880, has more than doubled itself
since then, and today ranks about the
second city in the South as to the
magnitude Of its cotton interests. II is
growing steadily each year in business
and population, and its turf interests,
Col. Montgomery ssys, are improving
in the same satisfactory ratio. The
local interest in the sport grows with
each spring and fall meeting, and IS to
the track, horsemen bear evidence as
to its speed, safety and per-
feet accommodations. There were
1876 horses wintering there
week ago. Yet further i'm
provements will be made there as the
situation warrants it, and we predict
for Memphis a most successful ADril
meeting. The stables that run at New
Orleans will all go to the Bluff City,
and the horses from other sections
will insure plenty Of racing material
there by the last week In April. The
stakes to close next week are as fol-
lows, and they are arranged with q
view to give all classes of horses OPP
portunities to earn their keep. For
two year olds the CASTOR Hotel stakee,
5000 added, ha'f a mile, is for FLIES,
and the Lawyer stakee, same
distance and amount Of added
money, is for colts. For
three year Odds the Gayoso Hotel
stakes, $500 added, is a mile and ba'i
a furlopg, and for all ages. The fix
lures for all ages are three in number.
The Peabody Hotel stakes, q hsu dicsp
sweepstakes OF a mile and q furlong,
has $500 sdded, ard the weights are
to appear two days before tho race in
other words, horses, il they have run
this year, are to be judged according
to their public form, and not by the
records Of last fall or summer. This
method Of h~andicapping seems to
give the mot satisfaction. A handi-
cap steeplechase $500 added, also comes
under the same conditions, while the
Railroad and Levee Contractors
stakes, a mile and a quarter, should
draw out q grand entry. 1t has the
liberal amount of $1,000 added money,
and with forty entries and ten starters,
will be worth over $4,000. A neat
sum this to win 30 early in the season.
All OF the above mentioned stakes
have a small cash entry, the balance
of stake money to be paid by starters
only, and the conditions are fully set
forth in the ads ertisement. Address
all entries on or before January 18th
next, to Secretary 8. r. Montgomery,
Memphis, Tenn.

SERVED HIM RIGHT.
A sELF-APPOINTED JUDGE, JURY
AnD EXECUTIONER
Receives n Ball or Lead I'm His
Cheek for His Unmitt-
gated gall"

Sunday night between the hours Of
10, and IL O'Clock, H. II. Glennia, a
switchman at the Memphis and
Charleston yards, shot S. B. Hughes,
the yard foreman, with a thirty-eight
caliber single action Smith 4 Wesson
revolver, infiictipg e serious wound In
the face. From facts as cleaned from
WITNESSES OF the ARRAY and the prin-
cipals, it was evident that Glennia
acted in self defense. Hughes and a
switchman named Murphy took Of.
tense at something that Glennis had
done, and attempted TO chastise him
during the day, knocking him down
and abusing him, and that night when
the men attacked him again Glennia
was armed and shot Hughes, the ball
taking effec. about half an inch below
the eve to the left Of his nose, and is
supposed to be lodged in the back OF
his neck near the spinal column. His
face is fearfully powder burned, show
ing that the muzzle Of the pistol almost
touched him when the shot was fred.
The attending physician does no. con.
slider Hughesis wound a fatal one,
though nothing positive can be as.
serted until the exact location Of the
ball ia ascertsined.
A reporter found Glenuia in a cell at
the Adams Street Station House yes
terday and the following statement
was made by Glsnnia about the diff
Guilty:
~ was attacked by Murphy and
Hughes yesterday and knocked down.
They said l bad gone back on a friend
who had assisted me In Little Rock. l
denied the assertion, and told them ]
could prove l was not the man they
were looking for II given until today
to do it. They refused to listen, but
struck me. l avoided a difficulty by
leaving them. Later in the day they
got on an engine where / was and
attacked me again. l went to supper,
got my pistol and went back to work.
After awhile Murphy and Hughes and
another switchman came in the coach
where | was eating and rushed at me;
then l shot Hughes.
~ am a railroad clerk, and came
here from Ksnsss City, where l bad a
job. Not being able to secure a place
10 an Office here, | went to work in
the yards as ~switchman,"
Glennia is a nice looking young fel
low, 26 years OF age, with nothing
slough" about his appearance. He
bears a good reputation at his board
ing house and with the railroad en-
ployes, being quiet and geutlemanly
of demeanor.
The injured man was visited in his
room at Ringwsld's boarding house, at
the corner of Charleston venue and
Madison street. He did not consider
himself badly hurt, but talked quite
cheerfully. His statement was cor
roborative OF Glennia's in the main ,ex-
cept that he denied making any as
sault, laying the blame Of all the at
tacks on his comrade Murphy. He
also refused to admit that Glennia
might net have deserted a ~"plrdner"
in distress, although he conceded that
the shootist had asked for time to
prove his innocence of the charge pre-.
ierred against him by the self consti-
tuted court.

Five cars of the local train from Dedham crashed through the Bus sey bridge, which crosses South street midway between Rosindale and Forest Hills stations. Two other cars crossed the bridge, but were thrown down the embankmeut and wrecked. The engine, with baggage car and two passenger ears, kept the track end were uninjured Twenty-six passengers were instantly killed and 100 more injured; some ol the latter are probably fatally injured The bridge was 120 feet long, 10 fee wide and 30 feet high The cause ol the accident is unknown, but flaws have b zen discovered in the iron work of tn, the bridge, and undoubtedly the poo, | quality of the material proved uneqna to sustain the weight placed upon it Three cars were crushed to splinters an, when one considers the fearful plung
 of 30 feet 1t is q wonder that greate number were not instantly killed.
